i'm making 1000ml solution which is 89.5% gasoline, 10% ethanol and 0.5% CeO2 nanoparticles which is 5ml, i want to know how much mass of nanoparticle i need.
should i use true density or bulk density or some other way?
thanks in advance
Dear Mr. Farzin
You must Knew molarity and number of used moles, and molecular weight, then you can find value of mass of nanoparticle to prepare 5ml of volume by using the following equation
M=(mass /molecular weight)*(1000/volume ml)
With best my wishes
Thanks alot for answering.
so using density of CeO2 which is 7.132 g/cm3 is all wrong?
@ Farzin Your question does not make sense. Are you saying that you have 5 mL in volume of ceria nanoparticles? If so then you have 36.6 g of CeO2. as mass = volume*density.
'mass of 5ml nanoparticle' does not make sense. Please explain.

You're right the whole concept does not make sence to me cause i only know i want to make 1000ml solution gasoline and ethanol are easy to calculate since they are liquid, and also i think you can get nanoparticles in a solution form if you mix them with water in a volumetric flask and that would solve my problem but i dont want water in my work i want to get the needed powder to make 5ml solution in a volumetric flask
I can! And i think i got it. I'll make a solution out of ethanol and CeO2 first i take the 100ml ethanola the whole and calculate if i want to make a 0.5% CeO2 solution it needs to have 0.5 grams CeO2.
